I really hope everyone has enjoyed/is enjoying the holidays with family and friends! Did you get all that you wished for? This period is always pretty hectic for me, like it typically is for everyone but it was filled with a lot of cheer =). Recently the Northeast was hit hard by a blizzard =(. …
Celine Handbags
I’ve admired Celine handbags for as long as I can remember and I’m disappointed they have not received as much attention as they deserve. The brand had a small boutique across from Fendi’s in Bloomingdale’s flag ship store on Lexington Avenue; I wouldn’t at all be surprised if it’s still there. I love that though …
Holly Hobbie Knickerbocker
While searching through eBay for an unrelated item, I accidentally found an auction for the 1970’s rag doll, Holly Hobbie. The doll had seemed oddly familiar to me (doubted my own memory at first). Then it hit me! I did own a 9″ version of this doll when I was little. It’s sad that I …
Spongeables: Applause Hand Buffer
This incredible sponge (purchased from my local CVS) really protected my skin from the harsh wintry weather last year so I had to do a review on this incredible product; especially with the cold already setting in! The Applause Hand Buffer, offered in the scent Honey Lotus-Quince, is very pleasant, sweet, and mild, cleanses well, …
NYCupcake’s Chunky Salsa Dip Recipe
The first batch of picante style sauce I made was a Part 1 of a Wagon Wheel Pasta Salad recipe. Since I needed only one cup of sauce for the pasta salad, I used the rest as salsa dip for tortilla chips. May I add, a great snack for watching football =) I still have …
Lush Review: Iced Wine Shower Jelly
Okay, seeing that it has been pretty cold out, I decided this wouldn’t be a bad time to re-stock on some Lush favorites and finally try Iced Wine Shower Jelly. As I suspected, it survived the mail without melting. I absolutely love the scent of Iced Wine. It’s reminiscent of spiked sweet cider. Sooo good! …
Anya Hindmarch Makeup Case
I’m such a nut for make up bags- you’ve seen them; the ones with the double compartments in which you can store your favorite brushes and mascara and with a bottom section large enough for all your cosmetic goodies. I’m not picky on whether it’s coated canvas or smooth heavyweight nylon but Anya Hindmarch’s version …
Deux Lux: Love Rekindled
My love for Deux Lux has been rekindled this year with the release of their Supernova Tote. It’s a great dressed up version of the everyday bag and affordable too. My favorite versions of it are in Moonshadow and Gunmetal. A perfect way to look stylish on your errands or at the library. The third …
Rachel Roy’s Koala Bear Ring
I’m still forming an opinion on Rachel Roy (not too familiar with her brand yet). Her Koala Bear Ring has definitely given me a great first impression. Koalas are dear to my heart; they are furry little lovable creatures. I’ve never seen such a cute statement piece before; rarely has a koala bear appeared in …
I Dream of Mulberry
I’ve been obsessing over this brand recently- thoughts spurred on by the launch of Mulberry for Target (the large black patent Bayswater remains elusive). The Alexa style is a chic messenger bag with a school gal sweetness. I wish I owned this bag too! My all-time favorite is the Bayswater in blue calf-hair. Gorgeous! Gorgeous! …
